jass spell import help

[shinji]

I'm trying to install this spell. However even though I've copied dummy units and changed all the raw codes to the correct ones, the map won't even start. All I did is copy and pasted it. I don't know what else to do. Please help.

The spell was coded in vJASS, so you need JNGP for it to work. You also need to make sure to save the map before testing it.

Here is some useful links. Also you need to follow the documentation:

Documentation

Unleashes a static thunder bolt towards a target enemy unit, dealing moderate damage. Upon impact, the bolt unleashes several lightning bolts towards all directions dealing secondary damage to units in their wake.
-------
Requires the JNGP to compile
You need the dummy.mdx model included in if you don't have it!
If you don't have a universal dummy unit i suggest you copy mine! (e001)
-------
Unfortunately i've dissalowed the user to config some vital code because i thought it would be better not to mess it up.
-------
Copy the map code and paste it on your map
Create the spell based on channel ability
If you don't have a dummy then make one
Configure the script at the top (globals)
Enjoy

I already installed jass new gen pack 5d. And I'm using the "Newgen WE". Maybe mine is somehow broken?

Did you save the map immediately before testing it? Did it save without errors?

Yes. It saved without errors. However, when I press syntax check in the trigger, it does show some errors. What confuses me is that I shows the same error in the original map as well. The difference is that I can't load the map that I imported the spell to.

I'm still having trouble. I read some tutorials. however I can't find the button "Disable RtC" button in the "reinventing the craft" section. Wierd...

You may need to remove it from the wehack.lua I suggest you use google for that.

Okay. Thanks. I'll try that tomorrow. Need sleep atm.

There is no "Disable RtC" button in my NewGen WE. There is however an "Enable Reinventing the Craft" option in the "Reinventing the Craft" menu, which should not be selected.

I'm confused. In a tutorial, it said that I have to disable RtC to enable vjass. So how to you enable vjass?

Sorry. It's still not helping. However I noticed a new thing. I could test run the original map. But if I do anything to the original map like moving triggers in one folder, it becomes unloadable. Even if I returned the triggers into the original locations.

EDIT:
The error says "Missing requirement: optional (libraries cannot require scopes)"

 

[Anitarf]

That behaviour is normal. The moment you change something, the editor remembers that the map was altered and when you try to test it, the editor tries saving the changes. Even if you then change it again back to how it was, the editor won't know that it is the same, it will only remember that the map was changed.

Based on the error message you are getting I would guess that you have an older version of JassHelper which does not support the optional keyword. Try updating it to the latest version.
